Siheyuan: Started in 1950, third-level cook

In the evening, it began to darken.

People who work outside have also returned home at this time, and the aroma of food begins to waft from every household.

Jia Dongxu, who was lazy and didn't go to clean the toilet, also left work quietly.

He has now figured out a way to be lazy, which is to clean the toilet in the morning instead of at night.

This way, I can use my working hours to clean the toilet, and even if Guo Dapiaozi asks me about it, I will have a reason to skip work.

After pushing open the door, before Jia Dongxu had time to step in, he smelled a strange odor.

Looking closely, I found a large basin on the dining table, which contained five processed old hens.

Me? ? ?

Jia Dongxu was confused and almost suspected that he had seen it wrong!

Why... why were all the old hens slaughtered?

Could it be that the old hen was too cowardly and was killed by her own mother?

"Mom! Mom, come out quickly. Aren't these old hens kept for laying eggs? Why are you killing them?"

"Mother???"

Jia Dongxu shouted a few times at the top of his lungs, but he didn't wake up his mother, but he did alarm Qin Huairu.

"Your mother is gone!" Qin Huairu cursed angrily.

She cleaned up five old hens this afternoon, which almost made her sick.

They removed the hair, bled the animals, and cut open their stomachs. Qin Huairu couldn't even remember how many times she vomited.

But Jia Zhang didn't help at all and just lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Qin Huairu didn't dare to resist and could only sulk while taking care of the old hen.

After cleaning up, Qin Huairu was thinking about stewing one in the evening to replenish her nutrition.

But when Jia Zhang heard that Qin Huairu wanted to stew a chicken, she jumped up from the bed, pointed at her nose and started scolding her.

Qin Huairu felt so aggrieved.

"What? My mother is gone?" Jia Dongxu suspected that he had heard it wrong.

"Your mother just went out and is not at home!"

Got it!

Jia Dongxu heard impatience in Qin Huairu's tone, but he was too lazy to comfort Qin Huairu. Instead, he turned around and left the house to look for Jia Zhang.

After searching the front, middle and back yards, Jia Zhang was nowhere to be found.

Jia Dongxu walked out of the yard somewhat puzzled, and ended up seeing Jia Zhangshi deep in the alley.

"Hey, why is Master here too?" Jia Dongxu muttered curiously, but chose not to go forward.

what's going on? ?

What do they want to talk about? Is it necessary for them to come to the alley?

And they even ran to the gates of other courtyards to whisper.

Hiss, could it be? ?

Jia Dongxu didn't know what was going on in his mind, and suddenly an incredible idea came to his mind.

Could it be that the master has some unspeakable relationship with my mother?

Yi Zhonghai hasn't been able to have a child for so many years, and this has almost become Yi Zhonghai's obsession.

Just in case, that is to say, just in case he wants a child but doesn't want to work hard with a aunt.

Doesn't that mean......

Thinking of this, Jia Dongxu actually felt that this was a good thing!

He has been Yi Zhonghai's apprentice for such a long time, but his skills have always been poor.

Jia Dongxu believed that Yi Zhonghai did not teach him seriously and was hiding things from him during lectures, which was why he had not made any progress.

If he really had something going on with his mother.

Wouldn't that mean his relationship with Yi Zhonghai would become closer?

When he gets older, maybe he can let Qin Huairu take over Yi Zhonghai's job, and then the Jia family will have two working families.

Dual working couple, two salaries, it’s a wonderful thought!

As for Lao Jia, Jia Dongxu didn't even think of him.

It's been so many years since he left. I can't let him delay my mother from finding a better man, right?

It is said that Jia Dongxu has a very strange brain, as he can come up with such a tricky idea.

But in fact, Jia Zhangshi pulled Yi Zhonghai into the alley to have a private talk because of the five old hens!

I raised the old hen because of Chen Jun. Now the chicken is dead, the Chen family must be held responsible.

But Jia Zhang couldn't come up with any good solution on her own.

So when Yi Zhonghai got off work, Jia Zhang wanted him to give some advice, or at least ask him to share the losses for their Jia family.

But Jia Dongxu had the wrong idea and felt that he would be able to recognize Yi as his father soon.

In order to allow his mother to successfully take down Yi Zhonghai, Jia Dongxu pretended not to see anything and returned to the courtyard with his hands in his pockets.

As a result, as soon as I returned to the central courtyard, I ran into an old lady head-on.

"Dongxu, have you seen your master? I had already prepared the meal, but when I turned around, he disappeared." The aunt said puzzledly, "I have already looked in the backyard, he can't have gone to the front yard, right?"

Looking for Yi Zhonghai?

Jia Dongxu snorted coldly, raised his eyebrows, and stopped an old lady who wanted to go to the front yard. He said, "What's there to look for? My mother and Master went to the alley to discuss some private matters and will be home soon."

"Don't make trouble, go home and wait."

Upon hearing this, the aunt looked at Jia Dongxu with a strange look.

She always felt that Jia Dongxu was weird today, especially his attitude when speaking, which was actually a bit...disdainful?

"What private matter can't be discussed in the courtyard?" an old lady asked in confusion.

Although she was very confident in Jia Zhang's appearance, she always felt that something was not right.

And Jia Dongxu's attitude made her even more suspicious.

"Get up. I want to go to the alley and take a look."

"Hey, you can't go!" Jia Dongxu dodged and stood in front of the old lady.

The old lady felt more and more suspicious and reached out to push Jia Dongxu away.

Although Jia Dongxu was a little thin, he was stronger than the old lady and he tried twice but failed to push the door open.

Got it!

The aunt immediately became angry.

What shameful thing did he have to talk about in the alley? And he let Jia Dongxu stop him?

So the old lady went home angrily, picked up a kitchen knife and rushed out.

"Jia Dongxu, get out of my way!"

The sound hasn't come yet, but the blade has arrived first!

Jia Dongxu suddenly felt his scalp tingling and he rolled to the side in a cowardly manner, avoiding the vertical chop from the middle-aged woman!

"Fuck, are you crazy?"

Jia Dongxu cursed loudly and then crawled towards home.

The old lady didn't have time to pay attention to Jia Dongxu and walked towards the alley with a kitchen knife in hand.

Xu Damao, who had just returned from get off work, was startled by the scene in front of him. He thought someone was squatting on him, so he quickly took a few steps back.

"Auntie, what are you doing?"

But the old lady didn't even look at him. She turned her head and glanced deep into the alley, then rushed forward with all her strength.

No, is this old lady crazy?

Xu Damao looked deeper into the alley in confusion and found Jia Zhangshi and Yi Zhonghai standing not far away, muttering something.

Jia Zhang was dancing and seemed very excited.

The same was true for Yi Zhonghai, who seemed to have had some dispute with Jia Zhang.

Uh... Could it be that the old lady was going to help Yi Zhonghai kill people?
